THE GOLD MINING COMPANY, (Goeation Music Mountains, Mohave County, Arizona.) ‘We are now on the eve of another prosperous min- ingera. Thetnvesting and speculative public are not called upon to take shares in’ mining prospect lately staked out, but are asked to invest their money at con- servative figures ina property that has been worked sufficiently to thoroughly demonstrate itsvalue by the actual ore exposed aud the amount of bullion ex- tracted. ‘The property of “The Gold Mining Company” com- prises two Mines, called the “ELLEN JANE” and the “TOMMANOTTA" respectively. For # full and careful description, with mill reports, assays, &c., parties in- terested are invited tocall upon the Secretary, at the Oftice of the Company, Room 40,Le Droit Building, ‘who will furnish jnformation. The prospecti® work of the Mines of the Company in “The Music Mountains” hae all been done, and their permanency and value fully demonstrated. ‘The shares of this Company should earn easily from 50 to 100 per cent dividend yearly, and the stock com- mand a corresponding value. ‘The great value which this group of Mines has over any miving property hitherto offered on the market, as is confidently adirmed, is in the fact that the ore in sight alone more than warrants every dollar of the money called for by the stock. ‘We have no longer to prospect for ore: we have it exposed and ready for extraction in both our proper- ties, All the Mines show remarkably fine prospects, and place the success of the undertaking beyond a perad- venture or doubt ‘This is the grandest and best mining enterprise ever placed on the market, and its possibilities have never been exceeded. Every share should double in value within ninety days, and they may quadruple, as they are based on property that would ordinarily have been capitalized ten times as great, on account of its known richness and promise. ‘The shares are made small, so that any one can in- vest. Every dollar of earnings will go the stockholders in dividends, as there is nothing else they can be used for. ‘No better investment can be made than in shares of this Company. The Company is onvanized under the laws of Weat Virwinin ‘Stock is non-assessable and carries with it no personal liability to the holder. ‘Our General Manawer, Mr. CHARLES W. CUNNIN HAM. who has bad many years’ experience in mini and tnilling of ores, is now here for the purpose of purchasing and shipping to the mines of this Com- pany suitable wachinery for the working and reduc tion of our ore, who can be seen for the next few da at the office of the Company, says in his report, to wi “It will require but a short time to prove that have a property second to none (nulii secundua) in Arizona, and one that will pay from tue first working of the mill.” Parties desiring to investimate, facts in connection made by our Presi- with these proporties are requ Secretary and proctire the rr dent and General Manager, which contain report of te- suite of mill runs at Kingman, A T-; Boston, Mass: assays made by Treasury Departnient, Geological Sur eg, and Mint Report; Philadelphia, Ronen ‘ommunications addressed to W.

The pope has dispatched two special commis- stoners to Ireland with orders to Turnish a report founded on information and observation obtained on the spot, with regard to the state of affairs in that country. ‘The nature of their report can be predicted before hand. They will tell the pope the truth—namely, that Ireland is of all Catholic countres the most devoted to the Catholic Church. In no land have his bishops more control of the People. Oneof the most curious studies 1s that of the cross-currents which are being brought to bear upon the vatican, The pope regards with grave dismay the progress of REVOLUTIONARY IDEAS IN THE CATHOLIC FOLD, Particularly in Ireland. If he were to follow his wn instincts he would probably put the National League and the home rule agitation under his ban, but, fortunately or unfortunately for the Catholle Church, its pastor has never been able to give hint of his personal feeling.
